Stuffed Acorn Squash with Beef, Apple & Rice

Name: Stuffed Acorn Squash with Beef, Apple & Rice
Ingredients: 2 acorn squashes, cut in half + seeds & guts removed; 3 cups of cooked short-grain white rice (I use this coconut rice recipe - for a grain-free version use cauliflower rice or omit the rice altogether); 1 1/2 tablespoons of unrefined coconut oil (I love THIS coconut oil); 1 yellow onion, peeled and diced; 1 lb grass-fed ground beef; 1 organic apple, cored and diced; 1 1/2-2 tablespoons of dried thyme; 1 tablespoon of granulated garlic; 2 teaspoons of dried oregano; Sea salt, to taste (I love THIS salt); Black pepper, to taste; 1/2 cup of shredded cheese (optional - I like mozzarella or cheddar); roasting pan or rimmed baking sheet; cast-iron skillet; foil

"Baked Stuffed Acorn Squash with a savory, slightly sweet & buttery filling of ground beef, apple, and rice. Fix this in about 40-45 minutes for an easy and healthy fall dinner recipe. It's also a great way to use up leftover rice or ground beef!..."
